Here is the letter written by Dolley Madison. Dear Sister, My husband left me yesterday morning to join General Winder. He inquired anxiously whether I had courage or firmness to remain in the President's house until his return tomorrow, or the succeeding day. And on my assurance that I had no fear but for him, and the success of our army, he left, urging me to take care of myself, and of the Cabinet papers, public and private. I have since received two dispatches from him, written with a pencil. The last is alarming because he desires I should be ready at a moment's notice to enter my carriage, and leave the city. He said that the enemy seemed stronger than had at first been reported, and it might happen that they would reach the city with the intention of destroying it. I am accordingly ready. I have pressed as many Cabinet papers into trunks as to fill one carriage. Our private property must be sacrificed, as it is impossible to procure wagons for its transportation. I am determined not to go myself until I see mister Madison is safe, so that he can accompany me, as I hear of much hostility toward him. Disaffection stalks around us. My friends and acquaintances are all gone.

He makes a bath in his backyard, so the birds can get a drink and play. |
Tom is engaging in an activity (creating a birdbath) that could lead to risky situations, such as being too close to wild animals without adult supervision. This could encourage children to approach animals without understanding the potential dangers. |
|

Sid likes the birdbath too. If the birds come to the bath, he does not need to hunt for them. He wants to snack on birds, so he lurks in the ferns. Sid is a hunter. His fur stands up as he looks at the birds. He wants to jump on all the birds in the bath. Tom sees Sid, and he is mad. He thinks, "The birds should feel safe in the birdbath." He gives Sid a stern look and yells, "Do not think about jumping on those birds!" |

|

One day, Robin Hood was traveling through the forest of Barnsdale when he came to a wide stream crossed by a narrow wooden bridge. It was wide enough for only one person to cross at a time and had no railing. Robin had walked a few feet along it when a tall man appeared on the other side and also began to cross. |
Robin Hood is crossing a dangerous bridge without any adult supervision or guidance, which may lead children to believe that such risky situations are acceptable. This lack of supervision can be concerning for young readers who may not understand the dangers involved. |
|

As differences of opinion about imperialism continued in the United States, some Americans were already busy establishing businesses and farms in Hawaii. The arrival of European explorer Captain James Cook to this Pacific archipelago in 1778 had sparked interest among other explorers and traders. An 1848 Hawaiian law allowed foreigners to own land. As a result, sugar plantations began to flourish in Hawaii. They were staffed by workers from countries such as China, Korea, Norway, Portugal, the Philippines, and Russia. Sugar exports from Hawaii became big business. Foreign planters gained considerable economic and political influence in Hawaii. In addition to business interests, more than one hundred and eighty Christian missionaries from the United States arrived on the islands between 1820 and 1863. The missionaries had a strong influence on both the religious and political practices of native Hawaiians. The United States and the Kingdom of Hawaii signed the Treaty of Reciprocity in 1875. This agreement enabled products from Hawaii to be sold in the United States without a tariff. The immediate effect of this treaty was that the number of Hawaiian sugar plantations increased from twenty in 1875 to sixty three in 1880. In 1887, with the support of the US. government, planters forced Hawaiian king Kalakaua to accept a new constitution that significantly limited his powers and established a government more favorable to American interests. In 1891, Queen Lili liuokalani came to power in Hawaii. She sought to address the growing influence of the American planters and restore power to the Hawaiian monarchy. Americans in Hawaii rebelled against these efforts in 1893 and, supported by the US. government, overthrew the Hawaiian monarchy. They established a provisional government, and Hawaii was officially annexed by the United States in 1898. However, it would take until 1959 for Hawaii to become the fiftieth American state. The annexation of Hawaii was a major milestone in American expansionism. It solidified the US. presence in the Pacific Ocean, and American businesses gained even greater control over the Hawaiian pineapple, sugar, and banana industries. However, this annexation meant that Indigenous Hawaiian people lost their sovereignty and much self governance. They faced many challenges to their cultural heritage and way of life. |
